Component Overview
In the Turbo, the exhaust valve is fitted with internal and external valve springs (set of valve springs) and adapted concave washers. The exhaust valve in the turbo engine has the same outer dimensions as the exhaust valve of the naturally aspirated engine. However, because of the sodium filling, the exhaust valve in the turbo engine is lighter and the shank over the shank entries is longer. For further details, please see Figures and Table entitled "Valve dimensions".
